I only noticed this today, but when I hold my version 2 near my ear, I can hear a quiet, repetitious, even beep constantly going beep... beep... beep... beep...
It was scary. I listened, and with a glance at my bird-like teen character, I thought of something. "MY TAMAGOTCHI'S HEART IS BEATING!" I shrieked. My bro thought I was a dimwit and said the speakers were broken. Do you know what I should do?

This faint beeping has been noticed on several models in the past, and is commonly referred to as the Tamagotchi's heartbeat.

I believe the beeping is caused by the LCD circuit as it switches pixels on / off. (The beeping seems to be in sync with the on-screen animations.)

I agree with binary. As far as I know this is completely normal and the speakers aren't broken or anything, I remember that my v2's used to do this too （＾_＾）.

My Tamagotchi-Nano and V1 has the heartbeat.

[tamalover134]

My v2 does that too. I think it is very cute and does sound much like a heartbeat

[Nazotchi25]

tamas v4 and onward don't do this (or at least not loud enough to hear)

[tamagurlbri]

Awwww I noticed it with my v3!!!!soooooo cute!!!!!young mametchi has a sweet little heartbeat!!:')

[ChamametchiandMametchi]

I say that it's a heartbeat, also. it happens with older versions of the Tamagotchi, even though it's very faint, you can hear it where the battery pack is. the only thing you hear is: beep......beep......beep.....beep. or something......I don't have a V3 or V4 to be sure..........

I think it's the clock and pixels moving. Like the second counter.

[Jesus]

I always called this the heartbeat as well. xD My 1997 tamas don't do it though.

[tamagal1]

I haven't had that before but it must sound sweet.

[CherubHorse]

All of my Tamagotchis up to v3 do that...I call it the "heartbeat" and I love hearing it when I'm falling asleep...hehe. I wish v4s and such had it, it's such a cute thing to do!

[tamagotchialice]
